Hey-yo,
I have problems with my keyboard and mouse sometimes when I turn my laptop on. They're just not working. Somewhere I read that it has to do with a so-called "blind registration" and that I only have to tip in my password. But no matter how many times I do that it doesn't work. I'll always have to turn off my laptop and turn it on again, hoping that it works.
I only have Linux for two months and that's the only problem I got until now. Please help ^-^'
Wireless mouse and wireless keyboard is not working in Linux distro's.
Read the similar threads on this issue. Boot mode is set for UEFI and Legacy therefore not sure what to do to enable mouse and keyboard? The mouse and keyboard use the same 'receiver' and the receiver indicator is green when Linux distro is fully loaded. Have tried various distro's, Ubuntu, and Ubuntu based distro's using LIVE DVD method on all. Latest distro tried is Peach 14.04.1 TW.40 64 bit. Motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3, CPU AMD FX6300 3.5 Ghz six core.
Thanks for any assistance.

Hello to everyone!
I was working on a linux server before few weeks. There was a grub/keyboard issue. If no keyboard is attached (ps port) the grub isn't loading the operating system. If the keyboard is attached the grub is loading the operating system by default without any keyboard interaction.
The difference is only that there is a keyboard attached. Thats all.
I was searching on the web and one thing came along: "turn on/off 'stop on errors' feature in your bios.". Maybe its this, but tonight I'm not able to check if its this becuase the server is in a remote location.
However I would like to hear what you think of this problem.
Have a good time!
Hi everyone,
I tried to install Elementary Freya and everything was good, though suddenly while using my laptop I get a black screen. I cannot use the mouse nor the keyboard. When I press the power button, to put the computer in sleep mode, and the open it again, I can see the desktop but cannot do anything.
I tried to use Mint 17.1 and then reinstalled Elementary again but I keep getting the same problem.
I use Linux next to windows 8.1
Thanks in advance, I would appreciate any help
I am running linux mint from a live usb loaded with unetbootin for windows. It works with my wireless logitech USB mouse, but the touchpad itself is unresponsive. Keyboard including FN keys are indeed working. I am on an asus EEEPC netbook. I tried making sure the touchpad was turned on vai the function keys. I have also checked in system settings the touchpad is enabled. Any solutions anyone?
Hi,
Xubuntu on an old Mac Mini.
I don't know how to do much so please give basic instructions.
I use my power button to put the computer to sleep. Only the power button wakes it up again. It used to wake if I jiggled my mouse or pressed any key.
Is there something I can do so the mouse or keyboard will wake it up?
When I start my HP laptop, which is dual booted with Windows 7 and Linux Mint 17.1 "Rebecca"(64-bit) and choose to start Mint, the logo of Linux Mint appears and then it freezes and doesn't proceed. Windows 7 is working fine. It was perfectly working for last 2 months.
(My battery back-up is low and cannot give back-up for more than 25 minutes, just mentioned it as it may be associated with this problem).
NB: When I pressed escape while showing the Mint logo at starting, some underlying(?) processes were shown. I have attached a jpg image of that screen. Hope it helps.
I'm a new linux user. I also use Windows 7.
I write in English & French using the USA International Keyboard on Windows ... this works well with 'overstike' (eg, '+e = é). I'm sure there's a linux term for this.
I don't mind making a full keyboard definition myself, but I don't know how & there must be a simple way to get this done.
I really need a full, detailed reference to doing this ... including where to find the various directories (I HAVE found the 'Terminal', but that's it !).
Just a link to a doc or wiki would be welcome ... the web searches I've done have given answers that are too cryptic for my level.
TIA.

I just started using Linux Mint 17.1 and so far I like it. I just have one small problem with it, all the print goes out of focus unless the mouse is hovering over it. This just started happening a couple days ago. I know it's my fault, as my 2 year old got hold of the keyboard for 10 minutes before I realized what it was she was playing with. It seems that all the icons, windows boarders, pictures, and such are not effected, just the text. Anyway to correct this blurriness?

Okay I found the problem is my nvidia driver from this link https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...s/+bug/1307236
What I have to do is delete .nvidia-settings-rc, but I cannot find it. Where is this file?
Hi everyone,
I just installed Mint 17 Mate, I created the partition of about 30 gigs, it installes to the point where the linux image is on the desktop, but unfortunately the mouse and keyboard is frozen.
W8.1 64 bit (brand new machine).
I installed the 64 bit Mint Mate iso
It all seemed to be going seamlessly until I started my celebrations
ps. it hadn't gotten to the installation pont where I was able to select the 30g of non-allocated space
Any ideas?
